Feudalism, #FOSS native governance? https://hamishcampbell.com/is-feudalism-native-foss-governance/ This is not even touching on the mess in the #mainstreaming #dotcons our fashionistas focus on, which is a powerful eco of this “native” #FOSS problem.

The old #mainstreaming is about building equality in our worship of the #deatcult. This is why #fashernista liberal progressivism
is always a problem to compos #KISS

We need to focus on real change and challenge. What does this look like to you?

At best, the old #mainstreaming is about equality in worshipping the #deathcult

The old #mainstreaming was only in a limited way about freedom, we now need to focus on what it was about, equality in obedience. Equality in our blinded worship of the #deathcult: growth, consumption, competition, endless mess on a dying planet.

That’s why #fashernista liberal progressivism is always a dead end problem, it plays radical, says radical, but composts nothing. At best, it sells rebellion as a lifestyle. It’s equality inside the system, not about freedom from it.

Freedom is not mine or yours. It’s ours, or it isn’t freedom at all

The illusion of modern society is that freedom is only individualistic, when our freedom is in truth interconnected with the well-being of everyone. This is one of the central pushes of the #deathcult - the mess of #neoliberalism we still live and work inside. It tells us that we are free as consumers, that choice equals' liberation, and that personal success is the highest form of virtue.

But this is a hollow freedom. What kind of liberty exists when every interaction is transactional, […]

#Nostr is a classic “me-too” project caught in the #geekproblem loop. It won’t move forward until it learns to value community as core infrastructure.

#Bluesky, meanwhile, is already drifting into the hands of VC-funded #fluffy elitists who turn every commons into a brand. It’s a likely dead-end for real change or challenge — which is exactly why the #mainstreaming, #blocking, #NGO, and #fashernista crowds flock to it.

“the currency of the 21st century is information”

"the currency of the 21st century is information" highlights the growing importance of data and knowledge in our rapidly-evolving digital world. For the last 5 years, the rise of encryption and cryptocurrencies is on aspect of this trend, reflecting a growing concern for privacy and the secure exchange of information.

The unspoken liberal individualism and private property ideas that come with encryption and cryptocurrencies is a market-based approach that prioritizes exploitation, greed, […]

@hamishcampbell

Social control? Sounds like you just brought up a completely different topic.

But again, you say it's about being isolated but now it's about social control which is the opposite of isolation... I really think you need to think this thing through more, because it sounds like you're buying into some ideas that people are telling you that contradict each other.

It's pretty incoherent, especially with the individualism versus social dynamic it can't be both ways. And in the real world, it's not.

Looked at the post agen, makes sense, yes it's not from the liberal #mainstreaming It's why it's there, we do have to think different.

Am pretty qualified to talk about these issues as in a past life have an MA in politics and socially, ave actively worked in the area of grassroots #openweb tech for 30 yeas.

The point is our isolation is a part of the social control, Maye look at the hashtag #stupidindividualism

umm, let's not turn this into trolling please :)

When dealing with #mainstreaming people, there is a strong #blocking from their incompetence, paranoia and mental health issues.

This is draining, we need good social paths to mediate this mess that 40 years of head down worshipping a #deathcult has left with us to work with.
